For Mamie Van Doren's, think Harold and Maude with no humanity. For the whole picture, think American Pie with no laughs.

This debut for helmer and vid vet Dewey Nicks and scribe David H. Steinberg, a feverishly naughty revenge comedy, is awful and subversively spunky at the same time.

It's several good jokes, a whole lot of character development and some skilled direction away from crossing the line from moronic to crudely inspired.

I found myself laughing a lot.

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 26, 2006

If it's unlikely to stimulate the brain cells, it will almost certainly make you laugh out loud.

...should have been a lot better.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 1, 2003

This may be a vaguely gratifying rent someday if you are intrigued with Schwartzman's early movies. He'll surely be around for a while.

The less said about this, the better.

| Original Score: 0/5 | Mar 10, 2003

You really have to wonder how on earth anyone, anywhere could have thought they'd make audiences guffaw with a script as utterly diabolical as this.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Feb 13, 2003

Isn't it a pity when the best words a film critic can say about a movie are 'not an absolute bomb'?

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 8, 2003

Calculated swill.

Ultimately as generic as its title.

It turns out to be a cut above the norm, thanks to some clever writing and sprightly acting.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 1, 2002

It's elevated into watchability thanks to the presence of Jason Schwartzman and some inspired off-the-wall moments amongst the smutty gags.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 30, 2002

There is so much wrong with Slackers, it may be more efficient simply to point out the one acceptable ingredient: Jason Schwartzman.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Oct 15, 2002

Its effect could appeal only to hardcore masochists: you pay it $9.50 and it spends the next two-hours laughing at how dumb you are.

Going with this title is about as original as calling the movie Animal Houses.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Aug 22, 2002

This is not your average low-brow university comedy; these filmmakers have a much more twisted sense of humour, pulling laughs from the most surprising places to liven up what is essentially just a sweet romance.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 12, 2002

Although not the best comedy in recent memory, it's not the worst either.
